Is it possible that GM does the first part before the engine leaves the factory for production vehicles? Aren't most cars delivered with a handful of miles on them already, making this scenario at least plausible?

I ask because I read a discussion a while back on a forum for Challengers, and someone noticed that a DIC screen showed a top driven speed of like 180 mph right from the factory. Someone else with knowledge of the inner workings at the FCA engine facility mentioned that the SRT engines went on a dyno and were broken in prior to delivery, and that the recommendations in the manual were mostly for other driveline components to break-in.
